UT2004 GOLD! Thread

Atari tells me that they're going to extraordinary lengths to manufacture and ship the game to have it in on store shelves on March 15th. You can expect to see an official announcement from Atari go out on the wire shortly.

I think UT2004 is the best Unreal game yet and I hope you guys love playing it as much as we do. If you've been playing the demo I can tell you that you ain't seen nothing yet!

Also gone gold is Prima's UT2004 Strategy Guide weighing in at 380 pages! Yes, you read that correctly, 380 pages. It is an awesome strategy guide, certainly the best ever done for an Unreal game. The walk through for Glacier (one of the assault levels) is an amazing 22 pages! This guide is packed with tips and tricks that you're definitely going to want to read.

Thanks to everyone for their feedback on the demo. It really helped make the game better. At some point after the game ships we'll update the demo to be the same codebase as the retail game. As you might be aware the demo didn't have any cheat protection in it, to avoid giving the hackers a head-start, so it is unlikely we'll release the updated demo before the full game is on store shelves for the same reason.

Yee haw! I can't wait, even if I have to get it after easter!

omg omg omg 15 march omg !!! i can't want i wanna play onslaught !!

Wow this game is going to kick so much ass.

w00t

me shall buy it

/me has already booked his copy! *GLEE*

Ive just ordered the Special Edition.

im just going to leave my house (OMG) and go buy it down town...

i'll buy it, but i think i'll buy UT2k3 1st :/

Don't Neo. Waste of money because:
a) Ut2k3 Sucks
b) All UT2k3 content is with Ut2k4
b) all mods for Ut2k3 work with UT2k4

what the?!O_o are the mods compatible?!

Well yea.... Its all the same content with a sh!t load more

nep is teh fool

why do you think hl mods will be compatible with hl2 :/?! well i don't and i applied the same logic to this case, FEWL

But... Ut2k4 is just the Ut2k3 with a few added things...

UT2K4 is the same engine as UT2K3, just with improvements. It's like buying Circket 2004 over Circket 2003... not much difference.

well ill be getting this one for sure... someone should setup a moddb server

im gonna buy it...

vietnam went gold too

Well, it should have. They're both being released on the same day

they are?

hmm which to choose?

They both look like good games, but I have seen no BF:V demo so no go until I play.

UT2k4!

screw bf:v, it sux. why? cuz me saying it sux magically makes it suck

...btw, i finally hit 100 posts

UT2k4 is going to be the first PC game I've bought in a long time. Yeah we should have a server, I guarantee it'd be used all the time.
